Vibrant and cosmopolitan, Dundee, Scotland, is the City of Discovery and offers several attractions and places to go.

One of the most popular places to go to in Dundee is the RSS Discovery. Take a tour of the ship and learn how Captain Scott and his crew coped with the conditions and sailed successfully to Antarctica.

Dundee also gives you the chance to step aboard a real warship. Built for the Royal Navy, and launched in 1842, the HMS Unicorn is one of the six oldest warships left in the world.

Sensation, Dundee's Science Centre, informs and entertains. Children can put away their text books and discover the fun and magic of science, either with schools or with their own families. Adults have just as much fun as the kids do!

Dundee will surely delight you if you're looking for entertainment. At Caird Hall you can enjoy ballet, music and a variety of other performances. Visit Dundee Rep Theatre too, a world-class performing arts organisation, and witness spectacular dance and theatre productions. For further culture, head for Dundee Contemporary Arts to check out the latest exhibitions and arthouse films. For something different, visit Auchterhouse Country Sports Club and try your hand at shooting, quad biking, archery, falconry or other activities. If a quiet round of golf is more your style, you can improve your game on one of Dundee's many golf courses.
